On Monday morning, Edwin woke up early to prepare for work. He hasn't tried to call Jessica since the last time he visited her apartment and he saw Gary's car.He felt cheated on because girls are always the ones begging for his attention and not the other way around.He decided not to call her even though he knew he missed her so much, he couldn't stop thinking about her and he wondered why she would leave him waiting while she spent time with Gary in her apartment.He left home and drove to work, got to the company's car park. Edwin walked to his office and looked at Jessica's seat, and he was not surprised she hadn't arrived because he arrived early.Edwin was busy working on some documents that needed quick attention and he was so engrossed in work that he forgot to check if Jessica was around.Around 10 am, Edwin sent some documents to Jessica to work on and he continued working on his laptop typing on the laptop.After a few minutes, Edwin checked his email to see if she had sen

Jessica was sitting in her room thinking about her life in general. She remembered the time she spent with Edwin and how he always cared for her, how they played, and how they promised each other to make their love forever. Jessica couldn't help it, she missed him. She brought her laptop out of her bag and decided to check her email to see if he bothered messaging her at all. Jessica saw his emails, and she checked them one after the other. She clicked the last email, which Edwin sent last night, Jessica opened it and the content made her smile. " Is he joking? Did he think I'm a joke?" Jessica looked at the email again and read it aloud to herself, " Jessica, you promise not to leave me, where are you? I missed you so much, I am ready to forgive you, just come back to me." " Forgive me? What did I do wrong to deserve his forgiveness?" she thought to herself. Jessica noticed her phone ringing and she picked it up to see who the caller was. Immediately she saw her friend's nam

Jessica woke up around 6:30 am, her flight was booked for 9 am. She started to move her box to the living room. Shortly after doing that, she walked to her bathroom to have her bath.She heard her phone ringing from the bathroom and she quickly rushed out with her towel wrapped around her waist.Jessica picked up her phone to see her friend's name, Angie, displayed on the screen and she quickly swiped up to answer the phone." Hello Angie," Jessica said happily." Are you awake Jessy? You know I can't wait to see you," Angie said over the phone."You have to wait for the next few hours to see me, you know," Jessica said, as she walked to her bedside to get a lotion to rub her body while she put her phone on speaker." Gosh, Why is Florida so far from Texas, so I need to at my time count down right now babe, am happy we will be together again after three years," Angie ranted." It's not up to three years, it's two years and a few months," Jessica said with a smile. She walked to her wa

Angie ordered their food and the two friends took Jessica's boxes to the room.Jessica called her parents to let them know she had landed and her mum also talked to Angie, thanking her for looking out for Jessica.Jessica and Angie started talking about what had happened to her, starting from Misha and James, how they had pretended to befriend her just for them to hurt her.Jessica told Angie about her suspicions that Edwin might be connected to the whole plot but Angie told her not to look at it that way.Their food arrived and Angie set the table for them. Jessica ate a lot of the food which Angie understood was due to her present situation because she knew Jessica always watched what she eats but she didn't want to raise it because she didn't want her to feel bad.After eating, they went back to the room and started arranging her clothes in the wardrobe. Angie saw a gown and she loved it, it was the same gown Edwin bought for her.Jessica told her it was a gift from Edwin and she b

Around 11 am the following morning, Angie woke up sluggishly on the bed. She opened her eyes slowly looking for Jessica beside her but couldn't find her. The ray of light shone through the window and she closed her eyes again, feeling lazy to stand up.“ Are you still sleeping? What time did you go to bed last night?” Jessica asked with raised brows, staring at Angie on the bed.“ Around 2 am I guess umm-umm,” Angie answered, yawning.“ Wow, were you able to complete the work? Jessica asked, walking toward the bed.“ Yes, I did. You cook?” Angie asked, darting her eyes, as she perceived the smell of a delicious meal.“ Yes, I did. Hope you remember the appointment?” Jessica asked, sitting beside her friend.“ Of course I do. Have you taken your bath? Angie asked with narrow eyes.“ Yes, stand up and go take your shower while I set the dining table,” Jessica said, running her hand through Angie's hair.“ Okay mama,” Angie said with a smile. Jessica left the room to set up the dining
